That’s a new one.

Oh it really is a new one.

Many former fans are toying with the idea of a boycott since word started circulating on social media about Kellogg's Froot Loops promoting a digital library "with equity, diversity and inclusion content" advertised on boxes of the cereal in Canada.

The digital library website, co-sponsored by Boys and Girls Clubs of Canada, allows limited access to all users who confirm they are at least 13 years old, and additional access with a code found inside the specially marked boxes of Froot Loops.

Thank you, Canada, aggravate away. Gonna go buy some to support the cause and see if I can get some repubs I know on the mailing list or something.

    I was wondering why my neighbor was out in his front yard burning boxes of breakfast cereal. His wife was pissed too, she was carrying the AR-15.

    if msn.com say it's so, then I'm inclined to believe the opposite.

    You're not going to believe this, but France, Norway, Austria and Finland have all banned fruit loops.

    😅

    Between the sugar content, preservatives and food coloring that wouldn’t surprise me in the least.

    edit: bingo, preservatives and coloring

    Must say I’d like to try those versions with natural flavoring.

    Oh, me too, I haven’t bought cereal like this in forever because I’m not into sugary stuff but hey, for the cause and counteracting magats I’ll make an exception… but if I had the chance I would like to try the “healthy” version just because.
